An atlas of plant selenium metabolism

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Selenium (Se) is not only a rare and toxic element but also an essential micronutrient for humans and animals that is often in short supply. Terrestrial plants do not require Se, but it can have growth‐promoting or negative effects, depending on the exposure level.

The Double‐Edged Sword of Gestational Insulin Resistance: Navigating Maternal Adaptation and Its Risks for Pregnancy and Offspring Health

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although much research focuses on the effects of hyperglycemia during pregnancy on maternal and offspring health, this narrative review specifically centers on the role of insulin resistance (IR) in pregnancy complications and offspring long‐term health.

A Chemical Probe for Increasing Leaf Tocopherol Levels by Coordinated Modulation of Biosynthesis, Competition and Storage

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant biofortification with phytonutrients typically relies on metabolic engineering strategies known as ‘push’ (enhancing biosynthetic flux), ‘block’ (inhibiting competing pathways) and ‘pull’ (promoting metabolite storage). Here, we describe a novel synthetic compound, X57, that simultaneously targets biosynthesis, competition and storage to

Two Indel Variations in the Regulated Carotenoid Pigment Gene Hold the Key to the Interspecies Flower Colour Differentiation in Liriodendron Plants

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flower colour variation is pivotal for plant evolution, ecological adaptation, and pollinator attraction. In the Liriodendron genus, L. tulipifera features a distinct orange petal stripe which is absent in L. chinense, driven by differential carotenoid accumulation, yet the underlying genetic mechanism remains unclear.

Convergent Evolution and De Novo Reconstitution of Apiin Biosynthesis

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Apiin, an active flavonoid apioside, occurs in phylogenetically distant plants, such as parsley and chilli pepper (Capsicum annuum L.). Its sporadic distribution suggests the existence of convergent apiin biosynthesis; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying this convergence remain unclear.
